Poland scraps e-TOLL for cars with trailers from September 2026

On the Grzybowo–Dźwirzyno route, a caravan ended up in a ditch. Police are on site, and traffic is moving alternately. Delays are possible until the vehicle is recovered.

The 4th Nadbuzhansky Caravan Rally will take place from 25 to 27 September 2026 in Drohiczyn, on the banks of the Bug River. The programme includes a kayak trip down the Bug, sightseeing in Drohiczyn and its surroundings, excursions around Nadbuzhansky Podlasie, an evening feast with local delicacies, live music and an open-air cinema. The event is under the honorary patronage of the Polish Motor Union.

According to a study by the German Institute DWIF, commissioned by CIVD, caravanning in Europe can save up to 60% of the budget compared to hotel stays and apartment rentals. However, motorhomes are more expensive to buy and maintain than caravans. New motorhomes start at 300,000 zlotys, while used ones cost from 70,000 euros. Insurance for a motorhome costs 1.3–2% of its value, and some spare parts can cost up to 450 euros. Meanwhile, a 14-day holiday in a motorhome is cheaper than staying in an apartment or hotel.

Polish influencers Jakub Tolak and Zofia Samsel, known as @foxesineden, purchased a 14-year-old caravan with a separate bedroom for family trips. They chose the model for its separate space for a child, spacious living area, and large storage. The price was just over 100,000 zlotys. The couple noted that maintaining a large caravan may not be the most economical option and invited followers to ask questions about its use.

TUI Camper compared European countries on five criteria: campsite availability, traffic and accessibility, prices, nature and climate, and cultural and recreational offerings. Poland ranked second after Albania, ahead of Germany. The country combines moderate prices with good infrastructure and abundant nature. However, motorhomes with a permissible maximum mass over 3,500 kg may be subject to different toll rules, including mandatory registration in the e-TOLL system. As of February 1, 2026, the e-TOLL network covers nearly 5,900 km of roads. Also, from September 21, 2026, rules for cars with trailers will change.

Polish manufacturer Freedo, part of the Swedish Kabe group, has introduced the 599 LU model based on the Fiat Ducato, where the driver's cab is separated from the living area. Early versions had a solid partition; later a sliding door was added. The living area features a large rear seating group for 5–6 people, converting at night into two single beds measuring 1.90 m and 1.97 m. Benefits include a more spacious feel, better stealth camping capability, and faster heating. Drawbacks are the lack of a front dinette, only two seat belts, reduced overhead storage above the cab, and a compact rear garage. Price starts at €71,600.
